Lyrics

Just Don't Tell Me That

[Intro: Justin & JC]

Oh oh, no no

Alright

[Verse 1: JC]

You like to be seen at

Every party at the Playboy Mansion

Fun, sad

I know I gotta draw the line

You wanna be in the flashes of light (of light)

Holding me tight (tight)

With your phony laugh

I guess you gotta be photographed

[Pre-Chorus: Justin]

You can say it's real

But I know where it's at

[Chorus: All, Justin & JC]

Just don't tell me that

You were gonna love me

I don't wanna hear it, baby

You don't have to tell me

That it's gonna be your last lie

No, baby I won't fall for that

Even if you did say

You were gonna be there

I don't want you back

'Cause it's not about love

Just don't tell me that

[Verse 2: Justin]

You like to drive in my Jag

And spend every dollar of my credit

Baby, guess what

Hit me with your golden eye?

I guess you wanna be part of the ride

Live for the night

But I've seen it through

I've had enough of being close to you

[Pre-Chorus: JC]

You can say it's real

But I know where it's at

[Chorus: All, Justin & JC]

Just don't tell me that

You were gonna love me

I don't wanna hear it, baby

You don't have to tell me

That it's gonna be your last lie

No, baby I won't fall for that

Even if you did say

You were gonna be there

I don't want you back

'Cause it's not about love

Just don't tell me that

[Interlude: Justin & JC]

No no

It's not about love

(Not about love)

No no

[Middle 8: JC]

You wanna be in the flashes of light (of light)

Holding me tight (tight)

Girl, it's all up to you

But whatever you do

I don't wanna hear it

[Bridge: All & Justin]

You're not gonna love me

I won't go for that

It just won't happen

Even if you say

You were gonna be there

I don't want you back

'Cause it's not about love

[Chorus: All, Justin & JC]

Just don't tell me that (that)

You were gonna love me

I don't wanna hear it, baby

Baby, you don't have to tell me

That it's gonna be your last lie

No, now baby I won't fall for that

Even if you did say (even if you did say)

You were gonna be there

I don't want you back

'Cause it's not about love

Just don't tell me that
